Real Madrid ready to bet 80 ME on a midfielder from Bayern Munich

Florentino Perez is reportedly interested in a Bayern Munich player to strengthen the midfield. Real Madrid could bet 80 million euros to bring him.

Real Madrid are looking for midfielders to make up for the impending departure of stalwarts such as Toni Kroos and Luka Modric. The Croatian international, who is 37 years old, should in any case leave the club at the end of the season. For the German international, doubt is allowed. Although the club already has high-level midfielders like Dani Ceballos, Eduardo Camavinga or Aurélien Tchouaméni, the sports management would seek to strengthen the team with top-flight elements. And in particular a Bayern Munich player.

According to information obtained by Todo Files, the merengue formation is particularly eyeing Joshua Kimmich. The German player, who was once a right-back, has become one of the best midfielders in Europe. Real Madrid would consider this transfer as a strategic solution to improve both the midfield and the right-back position. Although Kingsley Coman is also announced on the Madrid shortlist, he would not be a priority for the moment.

The player also interested?

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has reportedly been courting Kimmich for several months. The German player has also reportedly expressed interest in the club from the Spanish capital. The midfielder would have excellent relations with Toni Kroos, Antonio Rüdiger and David Alaba. Kimmich’s contract with Bayern expires in 2025, and despite being a mainstay in the team, he would be tempted by an offer from Real Madrid. The media evokes a sum of 80 million euros, which would be considered affordable by the Merengue leaders.

28-year-old Joshua Kimmich has been playing for Bayern Munich since the summer of 2015. The German international (75 caps) has so far played 331 games, scored 37 goals and delivered 91 assists for the Bavarian club. The Munich leaders could realize a strong capital gain, when they had only spent 8.5 million euros to bring him in.
